MyCustomerLens VS Google Forms

MyCustomerLens is a great solution for really getting into your customer feedback, making sense of free text comments, analysing the detail, and making decisions or taking action to follow-up. As well as running or analysing customer surveys, you can also import feedback from other sources, or listen to social feeds, and include comments and text in the analysis. Dashboards present results in clear, understandable, actionable format to share within your business.

I have been a customer of MyCustomerLens since day one. Their solution provides a structured and an effective way to collate feedback from a wide range of sources into one, clean, manageable dashboard. It allows us to better understand our customer, but more importantly act quicker to resolve issues and stay ahead.

One of our customers said: Our small mining operation needed to go from paper based process to digital forms. At first, Google forms allowed us to use this Web-based platform that lets individuals and businesses of all sizes build customizable forms to conduct surveys and generate real-time response charts.

We saw that a small sample of our field workers quickly adopted the new way of working.

Step 1: accomplished.

Now unto step 2.

How do we deploy this unto our whole team? We needed email notifications, offline response collection when without wifi on the field. Our CIO and his director of operations needed deep data and trends analysis as well. Our inspectors, when doing their audits, needed to capture approx. 25 high definition pictures, some audio notes and a video which wasn't really possible with google forms.

So, we can 100% credit the use of google forms to our transition towards a paperless process, but as we navigated saashub.com a little more, we were able to discover a world of alternatives. We strongly suggest to start using google forms before undergoing a big implementation plan towards such enterprise level inspection tools like nspek or even cheaper solutions like prontoforms.

I am not sure if we would start with google's solution first if we would to do this digital transformation all over, but it did allow us to discover it's limits pretty quickly.

At some point, we needed custom fields and functions, and none of us was able to code, so the nSpek training that comes with the application definitely sets it's self apart, giving us full autonomy.
